BARRY.

      “ so we’re all  ..  NOT , not gonna celebrate your birthday - but i can’t believe you didn’t mention it . why not though i mean you don’t really age do you ? i know it was yesterday but -  “  he approaches diana in the most natural  BARRY-ESQUE way , lots of questions it seems .  why’d he find out through bruce though ? 

          @amazonborn  ! 

    she thinks barry is a BARRAGE of bullets when it comes to asking questions or when he’s trying to making conversation to fill SILENCE.these kinds of things are not EASY to deflect with her bracelets. ❛ slow down. ❜ diana just gives him a knowing smile since it seems that he is UPSET that they couldn’t convene for a celebration. ❛ we can CELEBRATE my birthday if you like, but i suspected everyone was busy. there’s a collection i must OVERSEE so, i didn’t have the time to disclose such information. ❜ her birthday is a quiet one, peace among the chaos of her life.  ❛ aging is a much slower process for me. do you have belated birthday plans for me ? ❜

Bruce had debated on wrapping it or not, it was Alfred that suggested the glass encasing to make it appear more regal. Then again, there was no way for a sword to not look distinguished, as Alfred also pointed out. Nonetheless, he felt more satisfied laying it down on her desk encased than wrapped in ceremonial cloth. Proud of his handiwork on the now restored weapon along with the simple note that simply said, "Happy Birthday. You're welcome. - B"

wish diana a happy belated birthday

        between serving her justice & beliefs, the amazonian didn’t have much time. she has another collection to oversee & make sure everything settles inits place. the past while FILLED with saccharine memories are not the only ones to be made. heels click as she makes her way towards the desk & sees a xiphos short sword. AMAZEMENT fills her eyes & she is overjoyed at the thoughtful gift. diana does a cursory glance at the note since there’s not much writen. she had never thought she would see something like this. hands carefully pick up the sword before unsheathing it. small in nature, but the leaf shape remains in tact & what she likes to think honors gaia. this was FORGED from iron & she wonders how bruce was able to acquire such a rare sword. there were very few that survived due to OXIDATION. eyes see marks that have been made, no doubt tools. diana thinks these are feats to be mesmerized by humanity. it is true that they are CAPABLE of heinous acts, but they can accomplish MARVELOUS things. this is what makes her heart SWELL with the force of a tsunami. for every, terrible action exists good ones. without another word, she carefully puts the pointed object back in its rightful place. she grasps her phone before beginning to write a reply.

composing sms message;    diana: a man of very few words.diana: i’m not sure what i was expecting. maybe a little more appreciation.diana: thank you for the gift, i don’t think a text message could express my gratitude or joy.diana: see you at dinner.

MR.STEVENS.

He remembered seeing pictures of the Louvre as a young man — it almost seemed like something otherworldly, y’know. He couldn’t even imagine walking through that glittering, majestic pyramid and strolling past all the ancient artifacts and priceless paintings. 

If only little Erik could see him now, huh? Too bad he knew WAY too much about the world to keep viewing things through those rose tinted glasses he’d been so fond of growing up. Like how quite a bit of the art located within had been stolen during Nazi occupation and during Napoleon’s various war campaigns. 

And yet there it was, on display. ‘ a gift to the people ‘ they said. 

     “ Ordinary, nah. But I am an enthusiast. I’m Erik. Stevens,        I’m good friends with the Director.

       — In case you thought I was just random black        dude all up in your space. “

He offered a hand, even offered her a little quirk of his lips. She was coming at him with some respect, and he appreciated it.

     “ I’m actually here to check out a piece ya’ll got in last week.        An eben from the Benin period of southern Nigeria. IF that’s        cool with you, Miss Diana. “        

        ❛ how would you describe yourself then ? i’m the museum curator. ❜ her SMILE beams with starlight to hear that someone appreciates art. history is built on it’s CULTURE & everyone is only willing to share the good parts of the past. everyone wants to PAINT themselves as the good guy, but there are some things that just cross the line. ❛  regardless, i would still welcome you, mr. stevens. you have a TRAINED eye and that doesn’t go unnoticed with me. people forget to honor their history and the art becomes LOST with it.❜ she takes his offered hand, a FIRM shake since first impressions are everything.  then she let’s go with the information that he is a customer. perhaps they will talk about art besides the piece that he’s interested in acquiring. ❛ by all means. shall we go to the showroom ? ❜ diana extends her courtesy to everyone, her manners no know bounds even reaching to give advice to her enemies. if need be. LITHE on her feet she takes the moment to guide him towards the benin showroom. she slips off the apron & hangs it on one of the ladder steps. she falls into step next to him as they converse. ❛  what interests you about art ? do you mean to pay respects to your ancestors by acquiring the eben ? ❜ diana knows what it is like to pay HOMAGE to her people, though they are forgotten & hidden by myths, & misconceptions the world has of them. she had to hear lex luthor speak on her culture, it was misinformed to say the least. without further ado, they are in the showroom that will be here for a few months.

           diana is perched upon the ladder as hands work to create what is LOST. detailed dark eyes see where she can SHED light upon the damaged figure. is it not sad that some great things are LOST in the abyss? the only thing they can recover is a partial FINGERPRINT of the art. it is something & diana intends to make sure that HISTORY is not lost, that people are reminded of the good & bad. that is humanity after all, it is not so ROSY as she’s seen it before. in fact it bleeds of marble, so very grey since everyone is COMPLEX. out of the corner of her eye, she sees a man. he shouldn’t be here but, there is something about the way he is eyeing all the pieces that tells her that he is DISTINGUISHED from most people. she grabs her tools before DESCENDING & approaches the man in glasses.   ❛ can i help you? something tells me that you are not an ordinary art enthusiast.  ❜ a warm smile to show that she is genuine.   ❛ diana.  ❜  she slips off her gloves before putting it in her apron.

“ No tears for me? “ the man asked, sorrow swelling in the back of his throat as he realized just what kind of man his son had become.

     “ Nah, “ replied Erik, fixing his broken expression as he confronted the spectre — shifting from fragile to fearless as he stared into the face of the everafter.

                                      “ People die every day.  That’s life.“

" guess what I'm thinking about. "

the song of achilles meme

            ❛ i assume how wonderful it is that we’re all working together. ❜ she is HUMORED by barry’s question, even though she is not a mind reader by any means. there is a sense of DREAD that they might be nearing their last day on earth, a thought that humanity might be destroyed. but she knows that she will not allow it, as long as these hands CARRY her sword & her shield. diana will never rest until she carries out what she was born to do. the thing about JUSTICE ? it never quite stops being carried out, whether it be by the hand of their enemies or fellow comrades. 

        steppenwolf is their utmost priority as well as MERGING together as a successful unit. she had seen her sisters on themyscira band together with ease, covering for each other like ants in a line. she knows there are egos to be BRUISED peaches, stepping out of their element, & confronting whatever is their BUFFER that’s stopping them from being who they need to be. it sounds dysfunctional, but they are strangers. it is like the careful work she does back in paris, those things TAKE time. naturally.  ❛ am i close? i admit i’m not ATHENA in her infinite wisdom so if i’ve PRESUMED wrong, my ears are all yours.❜

BRUCE.

HE WAS A CREATURE THAT LIVED OFF THE SHADOWS. Shying away from any ray of light, scared to expose himself under its burning gaze, knowing that the likes of him could never truly comprehend the bravery in standing with the light when you lived and saw the world with opaque sunglasses. The whole view dark save for the outskirts that the shade could not reach but perpetually caught under the shield of it. Diana wasn’t. She didn’t live in the same world that he moved through, barely saw it in the same way he did, tinted and askew. One look at her and he knows without a doubt that this….whatever they were…couldn’t possibly work. 

And yet, his heart swells at her nearness.

MUSCLE AND BODY RELAX AT HER WORDS, at her touch, at the tickling of warm breath from her lips to his skin. Hardly anything but so much to a man that felt barren, devoid of it, more so now. The exhaustion of a strained structure eventually finding its weight, its purchase in a blocked mind. The foundation was thinning and so was his stubbornness. “ The logistics are against that. “ But weren’t they always? He was aware that she’d have no problem flying off and carrying him back but he had medical supplies on the Batwing.  Enough to stave off the burning in his muscles that was starting that would prove to be unbearable come morning if he waited much longer. “ Perhaps next time.” He suggests, clicking a button on his wrist and having the signature plane hang above their heads. “However, I don’t think I can climb this ladder right now with my current state.” 

        THEIR IDEOLOGIES A CLASH OF A SHIP & ROUGH WATERS. she is TRAINED to fight with swords like an elegant dance, to SEEK the truth in the bleakest of times, & roar in victory, but grieve in losses. diana may have been birthed in a WARRIOR culture but she has the softest views, to see love & want peace despite every thing thrown at her. her JUSTICE is one that she will always look for, to uphold even when things seem to go awry. it is a JUSTICE that will never sleep. contrast to bruce who INSPIRES fear to his advantage, to use the shadows like it were MAGIC bestowed upon him. his SYMBOL is his justice, the LIGHT that plays with the dark clouds of gotham. his RIGHTEOUSNESS is the kevlar that hides his human touch & the way he bleeds for his people. they have both seen results & they work REMARKABLY well together. 

      but she knows they should work, whatever time they have left. the clock is background MUSIC playing in IDLE for his eventual fate. diana desperately doesn’t want to REPEAT the same mistakes, from start to end. she wants to close this novel with no regrets, to know they have FOUGHT through it all. 

      SOFT HANDS GRASP HIS CHIN, pressing flower soft lips against his. it is quick, ghost-like to leave him hanging, to leave him aching as his bones do. goddesses leave their marks in mysterious ways. perhaps he will be lucky to be showered in AFFECTION, if he decides not to be so pig-headed. a shake of her head at his words, she retreats back to supporting him as greek architecture was a cornerstone. ❛ you mean your pride. you are the most stubborn man, i’ve ever known. ❜ diana thinks his unshakeable will represents humanity’s own considering all odds he PERSISTED. she can feel the burn in her muscles, his pain is hers, it is a SHARED feeling like having the same birthday as someone. but she learned to bear it, it is nothing for her. ❛ if you think you’ve heard enough from me, just wait until alfred sees this. ❜ nothing else is said until she picks him up with ease, FLIGHT coming easy to her until she’s near the cockpit. ❛ your move. ❜

BARRY.

     it’s embarrassing almost . sometimes he forgets there are   OTHER PEOPLE   in the room with him , since he’s almost always alone . a bad habit , most of the time its the fact he’s always moving . there’s no time for that kind of relation , people are   too much   work ; or he just could never understand the equation . so it’s embarrassing  ,  yikes - that he somehow forgot . but maybe now he should start remembering he’s APART of something .  included.   the food is long forgotten , but he smiles nonetheless .   “ sorry , i don’t have a lot of friends but - i mean i never .. really existed in that kind of , uh -  “   he pauses , clearing his throat to then  look at everyone .   “ friendship circle ? this , badass friendship circle .. um - the food’s great . i used to eat really fast , watching rick and morty ..   “  he still does , but ! 

         amusement etches on the amazonian’s face as he smiles, in a sense she OBSERVES that barry is the RELIEF of a tense situation. the moment before everyone is GEARING up for battle, an instance where she knows they either march back VICTORIOUS or die fighting. but before that they have a minute of CAMARADERIE ( to laugh, to breathe )  & barry is that moment.  ❛ it comes with the territory, i think. but there’s no HARM in forging friendships now. look to the present and live in it. ❜ another smile as she watches him rave about food & this show. brow PIQUES in curiosity, moving closer to hear his explanation. she can already imagine the others faces behind her.  diana knows that she is dealing with CHILDREN at times.  ❛ what’s rick and morty ?  i’m an antiquities dealer, so i have no time to watch TV. ❜  she spends most of her weekends with her co-worker restoring pieces of art that BEG to be brought back to life. diana sees the richness & the lost art of history that is contained in a single piece of artwork.

“ race you ! “

the song of achilles meme

        her COMPETITIVE nature is only natural considering her birth place. she thinks of her many SISTERS who were trained from birth. they were all cut from the STEEL of their blades to wage hellfire on the battlefield. it is just that diana had never been aware that she was special, a secret kept with an UNTIMELY price. she has never had REGRETS about her decision to help man’s world, but she often does think of her mother. yet, she knows she is doing well. to teach GIFTED & promising people such as herself is a reward itself. after all, diana had once been in their position. they had yet to CARVE out their own myths of adventures, of loss, & of love. 

       a cant of her head with a WARM smile as she agrees to wally’s terms. ❛ i accept, but i PROPOSE something, ❜  there’s a pause as she lets him wait for what she might say. ❛  we should WAGER something. wouldn’t that make the race EXCITING ?  ❜ regardless of his speed, it would never deter her from trying. she knows how it is to beat the ODDS, to resurface a champion or a loser. both of them are LEARNING experiences & diana knows they will both gain KNOWLEDGE from this race. she will keep in mind hermes at all times.

        a double take as she watches barry amass a MULTITUDE of food. it was their victory celebration & that only allows diana to think of the GODS. as it was told, the gods of olympus had AMBROSIA & plenty of sustenance. a smile APPEARS on nude lips at the thought, a good feeling to know that she has found a FAMILY here in man’s world.  she had once known that with steve, etta, & the others. ❛ i must say, i have never seen someone with such a voracious appetite, such as yourself. know that a meal is best with merry company. ❜ she has plans with bruce later to set up their headquarters.
